Summary

David was—understandably—a little leery of any mission that got described to him as a "milk run", after what had happened with the Valen and the Hand. Post-canon, the continuing adventures of the Liandra and her crew: David goes out of phase, and there's nobody except Dulann who can help him figure it out.

Summary

"If you'd just minded your own business—"

"—then you'd still be stuck here," Nala says coldly.

"But at least it wouldn't be with you!"

Or: Nala's rejoined the crew of the Providence, and Rina's the only one who doesn't seem happy about it. Then she and Nala get trapped on a magical island where there's nothing to do except try to figure each other out, which means maybe they'll finally succeed.

Summary

Grandmother ruled Gir Niajra, and always had.

Jummai felt certain this was so, mostly because it was impossible to imagine otherwise: anyone, anyone at all, seated so comfortably on that great golden throne except Grandmother? Anyone who could look or speak with such authority, to whom so many great and worthy people bowed down? No—only Grandmother. It had always been Grandmother, and it always would be.

Then Grandmother died; and there was a war.

(Or: Jummai is a princess without a throne—but she has no intention of leaving to others what is rightfully hers. She needs a wife with an army, and gets one; but her wife seems impervious to her tactical charm, she keeps making mistakes, and her cousin still wants her dead.)

Summary

Min will rescue the sacred princess. She knows this, and always has; it is foretold. But the girl she finds in the Shadow King's fortress is not the princess she had expected, and she does not understand it.

(aka, your average fairytale: girl argues with girl, girl saves girl, girl saves girl right back, with a side of bedsharing and amnesia and stubbornness.)

Summary

The author's Battle Creek fics, in the order they were written. The stories aren't related and do not belong to a single universe; this is just my way of collecting them and making it easy for people to keep track of the new ones (if you have an AO3 account, just hit "Subscribe" to be alerted when I post a new story) while I'm still anonymous. :D

Bookmarker's Notes

Comment says it all: "This is amazing -- you really put some awesome meat on the bones of the canon, and I love the sympathetic and strong looks at Mermista and Frosta especially. Wonderful and gorgeously written." I don't know aaaaaaanything about She-Ra, and the canonical proper nouns are ridic; but this story is perfect. Except clearly it should be about a hundred thousand words longer.

Bookmarker's Notes

I don't know the canon this is based off of, but the tags/collection details are right: I didn't need to. The tags are also right to say this is disturbing, because it is; but it's also fantastic and unsettling and riveting and painful, women in terrible situations having to make terrible decisions.

The first commenter on Chapter 3 says it better than I can: "The picture you've painted here of the way these girls live, the way they make lives and families out of nothing, out of hell, the desperateness with which they love each other, the brutality with which they protect each other... All of it is just so powerful. It's horrible and painful, but it's also wonderful and life affirming in the way that the sort of tiny, ugly plants that grow where nothing else can are." ALL OF THIS. +1

Bookmarker's Notes

What I didn't know I wanted and definitely didn't get from the movie. Beautifully, eerily plausible, particularly considering the movie's ending; ambiguous + (creepy x badass) = awesome. I only wish it were longer!
